Day 2

Spoiler:

- Found the coin case and beat all the trainers in the underground shop. Proceeded to forget that the whole reason I was looking for the coin case was to see if there were any worthwhile prizes.
- Beat Whitney (3rd badge). Was doing awesome against all the trainers and her until Miltank, at which point I only won because of a critical hit.
- Got the bike, radio card, and squirt bottle
- Delivered a spearow carrying mail to a guy on route 31
- Beat Sudowoodo
- Finally encountered another fire pokemon: Vulpix! But it used roar and scared Quilava away
- Entered a bug catching contest. Didn't even place. Dumped Weedle in the PC.

- Beat the trainers on Route 35
- Got to Ecruteak City
- Beat the Kimono Girls
- Beat Morty (badge 4)
- Taught Rock Smash to Quilava so I could get through Burned Tower
- Beat Rival, and all the other trainers, in Burned Tower.
- Catch Magmar after FIVE FREAKING TRIES. Wasted so many pokeballs...

- Ended up in Olivine city.
- Got Strength. Taught it to Magmar.
- Got a fishing rod. Caught Magikarp, then realized it couldn't learn surf, so boxed it. Caught Krabby and taught it to surf instead.
- Got to the top of the lighthouse where Jasmine asks me to help her with a sick pokemon, but it seems I can't actually go any farther with this yet.
- Off to Rage Lake then
- Quilava evolves into Typhlosion on the way
- Caught the shiny Gyarados (which is way less special when it's guaranteed to be shiny, but whatever), taught it surf and boxed Krabby (because let's face it, Gyarados is way cooler than Krabby)
- Talk to lance, and find Rocket's underground hideout.
- Got through the first floor
